 * Hi [@louisapple](https://wordpress.org/support/users/louisapple/),
   This is normal,
   don’t worry!database version doesn’t always update with every WooCommerce release.
   Why this happens:in your current 10.3.0 version of your plugin is the code files.
   but database version 10.2.2 that means the last update was required databased
   changes. that’s why WooCommerce 10.3.0 didn’t need database structure changes
   that’s why Database version stay at 10.2.2

 * Hi [@louisapple](https://wordpress.org/support/users/louisapple/),
 * I totally understand your concern — it can definitely feel confusing when the
   WooCommerce plugin updates successfully, but the database version doesn’t match
   right away. No worries, I’ll help clarify what’s going on here.
 * Also, thank you [@shsajalchowdhury](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shsajalchowdhury/)
   for jumping in with helpful context! Just to fine-tune that explanation a bit,
   while it’s true that not every plugin update includes a database schema change,**
   WooCommerce does typically prompt a database update** when one is required. The
   plugin version and database version don’t always align numerically, but if WooCommerce
   10.3.0 _did_ include database changes and you haven’t yet run the update, it 
   might still be pending.
 * To check this, please go to:
   **WooCommerce → Status → Tools** and look for the**“
   Update database”** button within the tools section. If it’s available, go ahead
   and run it. That should bring your database version up to match what’s expected
   for 10.3.0.
 * Let us know if you see that option or if you’ve already tried it! Feel free to
   let us know how it goes, or if you run into any other problem.

 * Hi [@louisapple](https://wordpress.org/support/users/louisapple/),
 * I understand you’re now facing another issue after updating, and I’m here to 
   help figure it out with you. Just to clarify — when you mentioned that “the payment
   with eway cannot go through,” are you referring to the **eWAY** payment gateway
   plugin specifically?
 * It would be helpful to know:
    - Are there any error messages shown on the checkout page or in the order notes?
    - Is the issue happening for all orders or only certain ones?
    - Have you noticed anything unusual in the WooCommerce or eWAY logs?
 * Once I have a bit more detail, I’ll be able to guide you better.

 * Hi [@louisapple](https://wordpress.org/support/users/louisapple/),
 * Thank you for the update and clarification. For more direct assistance from the
   plugin developers, it’s best to create a topic here: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-gateway-eway/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-gateway-eway/)
   so the eWay plugin issue can be handled by the appropriate team.
